Graduation requires fulfillment of all credit requirements for the student’s chosen path (Technical, General University, or Comprehensive University).
When college representatives view your transcript, they will look to see if you meet the college entrance requirements. It is your responsibility to make sure you are fulfilling your requirements for graduation and for college entrance. Compare the following lists with your credits to be sure you have completed the requirements for graduation. If you have any questions, please let your counselor know immediately.

Any student, who is a senior and has not completed the assignment time at MAP 5 days before the end of the school year, may not participate in the graduation ceremony. If all academic work has been completed that will allow them to graduate ,they can pick up the diploma on the first school day after graduation.
It is extremely important to be at school every day to enhance your chances for success.
Most major colleges require ACT or SAT scores as admission criteria. The ACT results are divided into several different scores, but the most important one is the composite score. It is the average of the four subject areas – English, Math, Reading and Science Reasoning. The ACT composite score will range from 1 – 36.
Colleges will take a hard look at your ACT/SAT scores. Most have a minimum for admission and for scholarship qualification. The best way to improve your score is to take challenging courses or academically enriched courses that will increase your knowledge of the subject. You may retake the ACT as often as you wish, as most colleges will usually accept your highest composite. Most colleges will accept either the ACT or SAT. Contact the college of your choice or college catalogue to see if a particular test is required.
Registration packets for the ACT can be picked up in the guidance office. It is your responsibility to fill out the ACT/SAT registration materials and to mail them before the deadline. Seniors are entitled to one free ACT or SAT. Take advantage of the free test by submitting a voucher, which is available in guidance. The following dates are the ACT test dates and the registration deadlines.

CHOOSING A COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES
Four-year public colleges are usually larger and less expensive than four-year private colleges because public colleges receive state funding which allows them to keep their tuition lower. If you plan to attend a school out of state, you will most likely be required to pay additional out of state tuition cost. This cost may be substantial. Reminder: The Lottery (Hope) Scholarship is not available for any school, public or private, outside of Tennessee.
WHERE SHOULD I ATTEND?
The following information is very basic, but may help to provide you with some guidelines about choosing a college. Since you will be spending at least two to four years of your life at a college, you need to carefully select a school where you will be happy and that will allow you to develop your intellectual, spiritual, emotional and personal well-being. Take the time to think through what it is you are looking for in a college and to discuss this with your parents. It is good to apply to several schools that meet your expectations. The following questions may give you some idea where to start in your search for the right school and may help you answer the question “Why am I going to this college?”
· Do I want to attend a four-year college or a two-year college?
· What size school do I want to attend?
· What kind of location am I looking for? Rural or urban? Far away from home or close by?
· What type of academic program do I need for my major? Does this school offer the best academic programs for my field of study?
· What schools can my family afford? Do they offer scholarships or work study programs?
Suggestion: It is strongly recommended that you apply to at least one college that you are confident will accept you. You never know what may happen and it is best to be prepared.
Colleges may use any or all of the following information listed below when determining if an applicant should be accepted and how much scholarship money, if any, will be offered. This list is not in the order of importance. Some colleges may place more emphasis on test scores, while another college may not.
1. Grade Point Average (GPA)
2. Core Courses and their Grade Point Average
3. Class Rank
4. ACT and/or SAT scores
5. Strength of subjects
6. Personal Essays
7. Activities/Awards/Leadership Roles in Club/Public Services
8. Interviews
9. Recommendations
This is a quote from a letter guidance received from a major university:
“This year we experienced over a 12% increase in applications resulting in more than 30,000 applications for 2,800 available spots in the freshman class. In reviewing our applications we consider the following aspects of each applicant carefully: performance in high school (grades, quality of courses, rank in class, trends in grades, performance in courses related to academic area of interest); test scores ( SAT or ACT); recommendations; personal statement; extracurricular involvement; and interested area of study. In our process, we also value evidence of a student’s resilience, leadership abilities, and creativity. It is important to note that major/college choice plays an important role in our decisions as very popular programs can only accommodate a limited number of new students each year.”

*This list does not include all possible web sites.
CONTACTING A COLLEGE
The main points of contact at a college are through the admissions office, the financial aid office, or college recruiter. It is your responsibility to contact a school for a tour and for scholarship and application information. If you are having problems contacting a school, your counselor can help you. It is important to know that each school has its own deadline for admission applications and scholarships. Please DO NOT wait until the last minute to contact a school and request information or an application.
REQUEST FOR VISITING A COLLEGE
First, you must contact the school and make an appointment with them before going to the campus. Surprise visits are not very wise. Second, after you have confirmed an appointment to visit a school, bring a note the next day for the principal to sign as an excused (not school related) discretionary day.
TRANSCRIPT REQUEST
In order for us to best serve you with processing your transcripts to one or more colleges, we need you to adhere to the following procedure. First, do not request that a transcript be sent to a school until after you have mailed your application for admission. Please understand that colleges and scholarship agencies require an official transcript imprinted with the school seal. Colleges will NOT accept transcripts from the student. However, if you are going to visit a campus it is okay to take an official transcript with you. See the guidance secretary to request a copy of your transcript.
After graduation, we will mail your final transcript to the college of your choice. You are responsible for letting us know where to send your final transcripts by filling out the proper form at the designated time. We will mail your transcripts to the school(s) of your choice.
If you are applying for financial aid through the college/university, you need to send 3 transcripts. One after you mail you registration form, one the last part of January after 1st term grades are posted and one after you graduate. During the Senior Honor Assembly (about 2 weeks before graduation) you will be asked to give guidance the school(s) where you want your final transcript(s) sent after you graduate.
COMMUNITY COLLEGES
Two-year colleges offer an excellent alternative to starting a four-year college. If you think you are not ready for a large and crowded university, you may want to consider a two-year university. They generally offer a calm atmosphere with smaller classes. Traditionally, community colleges are usually less expensive than four-year colleges and universities. They also offer many two-year degree programs (such as the Associate of Arts or the Associate of Science degree) that will allow you to get an early start on your career. Community colleges seldom have dorms.
If you choose to start a community college, you can later transfer to a four-year college to complete a four-year degree. However, if you are admitted to a community college after completing high school on the technical path, you may have academic deficiencies to remove before you can proceed at the community college or transfer to a four-year school. Such deficiencies may include areas in math, science, or a foreign language. The admissions officer can help you to determine which program would be in your best interest.
Community colleges do require you to take the ACT as an admissions requirement. Some students may be placed in remedial courses, depending on their ACT scores. Some mid state community colleges are:
· COLUMBIA STATE COMMUNITY COLLEGE (931-540-2722) Website: www.coscc.cc.tn.us (Columbia, TN)

· VOLUNTEER STATE COMMUNITY COLLEGE (615-452-8600) or Website: http://www.volstate.edu (Gallatin, TN)
TECHNICAL SCHOOLS
Technical schools are specialized schools designed for specific career training for gainful employment in business and industry. Training may take anywhere from 3 to 24 months, depending on the program of training you choose. Tennessee has several excellent technical schools. It is very important that you visit and investigate any technical school to be sure they offer the career program you wish to pursue. Five area vocational/technical schools are listed below.
